The advocates of the so called new
process" Of brine sailing butter are fitting
opinions quite freely with the advocates
of the old method of dry sailing" There
are successful butter workers ON both
sides, which makes it appear that each
method possesses merits and that each
produces good quality Of butter. The
question to be decided seems to be which
method involves the least labor. As high
authority as Y. d. Curtis takes the ground
that dry sailing is equally advantageous
with the new process and less trouble
some. lie claims that the easiest way to
salt butter is the usual one, viz: apply
ing the salt direct to the butter when it
has reached the granular state.

Bees begin to make preparations for
winter somewhat earlier than is generally
supposed, In preparing for winter, as in
deed in all matters pertaining to bee
keeping, apiarians ought to adopt us nearly
as possible methods OF management il
agreement with The interests and habits
of the bee, In a report recently issued by
the department Of agriculture on the OBJ
servatious and experiments made under
the direction OF the entomologist occur
some notes Of instruction on this subject,
1t has been found a good practice to
widen the spaces between the comb frames
near the close OF the honey gathering sea-
son, in order that the bees may, by elon-
eating the cells, place large share of the
winter stores above the cluster. When
bees build their own combs after their
own design, as in box hives, spaces are
LETT between wide enough to admit Of
elongating the celA in order that a large
share Of the winter stores may be placed
in the top OF tie hive, easily accessible in
the severset weather.
As soon ~ the stering OF surplus honey

should he examined, the amount and
character OF the winter feed aseertained,

Judging from the crop reports there is a
very general prevalence of eophers
throughout the newer portions of the
northwest. Professor Budd destroys
gophers on the Iowa college farm with
strychninc crystals Potatoes are cut in
halves and their cut surfaces rubbed
with the crystals. These poisoned
pieces are stuck firmly on to
the sharp ends of stiff tWigs, about
eighteen inches in length. As the burrows
of the gopher are opened a piece Of potato
is run in the length of the stick, the outer
end being fastened by sticking it into the
earth at the mouth of the hole. BY this
means Professor Budd reports that the
land was cleared of the pests in about one
week. When the poison was scattered
loosely in their runs it proved less etfec-
tive, as they throw it out untasted in most
cases.

The draft horse interest is extending
rapidly throughout the country, notably
all over the west. Larger impor.ations Of
draft horses are reported this season than
ever before. As these importations in
clude many Clydesdale horses, few
words about this breed will doubtless
prove of interest. There is no question
that a vast improvement has been
effected of late years in the breeding of
Clydesdales, though the original stock
contained the elements Of what is really
good and substantial. The increased de
mand, not only from Canada and the
United States, but also from South Amer
lea, Australia and several Of the conti-
mental countries of Europe, has proven n
wonderful incentive to breeders. For
merly the valley of Clyde was the CHEF
breeding district, but nowadays Clydes-
dales are bred with about equal success in
nearly every county in Scotland.
While it cannot be claimed that the
Clydesdale is Il model horse for every pur-
pose, it may be said he is Il trustworthy,
level headed, Gocile animal, of great value
as draft and work horse. The average
modern CIydesdale stands from IS to
1G 12 hands high, and weighs, when in

A Burberry Hedge.

The berberry or barberry, as this hardy
plant is variously termed, is employed in
some localities as a hedge, 1t is easily
propagated both from seed and by u
division of the roots. The seed may be
sown in early spring or rs soon as ripe
and before they have dried. If the seed
are kept long before planting they are
covered in moist sand. A very usual
plan is to sow the seed in the garden
and transplant the seedlings in the hedge
row, though some prefer to SOW the seed
where the hedge is desired, afterwards
thinning out the young plants.

"E0rthing up" or "handling" celery, as
the earlier process of banking is variously
termed begins about six weeks after the
plants have been set out or as soon as the
stalks begin to lie down. The object of
this earthing is to keep the stalks upright
and cause II new growth to start the best
for eating. The usual plan is when the
plants are quite dry to compress the
stalks with the left hand and crowd earth
about them with the other.
A great point is to prevent dry earth
falling between the stalks; it must be
flrmed about them in such manner as to
keep the plants straight and compact. The
first earthing up is from two to four
inches high, enough to keep the plant
straight. More soil is gradually drawn
up to the plant by means of hoe or pillow
until the banking is completed. The bank
is best made broad at the base and the
